BK Home Broker offers zero-fee access to Banksia Co-Living — developers pay the commission, so buyers pay nothing for our help.

About Armstrong Creek

Armstrong Creek is Geelong's designated primary growth zone, consistently absorbing demand from Deakin University, Barwon Health and a growing pool of Melbourne commuters. Land supply is being released more slowly than demand is arriving, which underpins both rental performance and capital growth.

The Geelong Fast Rail upgrade will bring Melbourne within 36 minutes of Armstrong Creek, strengthening an already compelling commuter story. With the corridor's infrastructure maturing, the capital growth argument for Armstrong Creek is increasingly priced in rather than speculative.

Banksia Co-Living Homes and Pricing

Banksia Co-Living packages are configured as 5 bedroom / 5 bathroom / 2 car homes on a single title — one loan, one rates bill, one insurance policy, managing five separate rental income streams. The build is approximately 205.75 m².

Lot 1332 — $835,950: 400 m² land. Lot 1314 — $885,050: 448 m² land. Both lots title in June 2026 and sit in the $800K–$900K band. A settlement rebate of up to $25,000 has been offered on this release. Confirm current lot availability and incentives at enquiry.

Who Should Buy at Banksia Co-Living

Banksia Co-Living is built for investors. The co-living structure means five independent rooms each generate income, so if one tenant leaves, four income streams remain — a built-in vacancy buffer that standard house-and-land cannot match. Projected rent is around $1,300 per week for an 8% gross yield, supported by a five-year rental guarantee for cashflow certainty from day one.

At a sub-$900K entry into a Geelong growth corridor, this is an increasingly rare yield play. It is less suited to owner-occupiers, given the shared-room configuration is designed for rental income rather than single-family living.

Victorian First Home Buyer Grants

While Banksia Co-Living is primarily an investment product, Victorian first home buyers of new builds more broadly can access the $10,000 First Home Owner Grant, stamp duty exemption under $600,000 and concessions up to $750,000.

The First Home Guarantee offers a 5% deposit with no Lenders Mortgage Insurance, and the Regional Home Guarantee applies in regional Victoria — Geelong qualifies as a regional area. BK Home Broker can confirm eligibility and which schemes suit your purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions

What yield does Banksia Co-Living target? The Banksia Co-Living packages target an 8% gross rental yield, with projected rent around $1,300 per week and a five-year rental guarantee.

Why is co-living more resilient than standard house-and-land? With five separately tenanted rooms on one title, the loss of a single tenant leaves four income streams intact — a vacancy buffer a single-family rental does not provide.

Does BK Home Broker charge buyers? No. BK Home Broker is free for buyers because the developer pays our commission. Learn more at bkhomebroker.com.au.
